Raising money to resurrect the banned school paper brings Adam in contact with some quirky characters in this sharp, funny novel starring the ace middle-grade reporter.

A "dirty" school election, suspicious state test scores ? Adam Canfield and his star reporters are chasing some red-hot leads. There?s only one glitch: the school board has shut down THE SLASH for exposing the town?s most powerful family, and now the staff has to find a way to publish it themselves. Enter the Ameche brothers: two goofy kid entrepreneurs with a knack for refurbishing junk ? and a talent for selling ads ? but a shaky command of journalistic ethics. What?s worse, Adam hasn?t a clue why his coeditor, Jennifer, is suddenly acting weird. . . . With kid-friendly humor and a touch of budding romance, this new adventure revisits a winning cast of characters ? and the excitement that comes from uncovering a really great story.
